President Xi Jinping on Friday said the strategic ties between China and Russia stood at a historical starting point despite opposition from the US as his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin wound up his two-day visit expressing readiness to pursue a negotiated settlement to end the war in Ukraine.
Putin arrived here on Thursday to mark his first visit to China after his re-election in March and held several rounds of talks with Xi besides signing a vision document to continue their strategic cooperative partnership.
